At least 23 children have been killed in a fire at a boarding school in a suburb near the Liberian capital Monrovia.
The fire is believed to have broken out in the early hours of the morning, when school students were sleeping in a building attached to a mosque.
Police have told the BBC that they are still looking for bodies in the ruins of the building.
